Diya runs the half marathon for Project Youth!

I’m lacing up for a cause and fundraising through the the OC Marathon to empower underserved youth through Project Youth OC.

Hello!

I am running to support Project Youth OC, a local nonprofit dedicated to empowering at-risk youth in our community.

Here are some things that Project Youth does:

- educational programs designed to provide high school and college students with the academic, social and resource support needed for success in school and in the workplace.

- juvenile diversion programs are designed to keep youth from repeat offenses of further involvement with the criminal justice system and deter substance abuse use.

- health education programs that provide risk education to adolescents, teens and parents to reduce their risks of sexually transmitted infections, HIV/AIDS, teen pregnancy, and alcohol and drug abuse.

I'll send you a photo after my finish my race as a thank you!

Thanks!   -Diya
